Cuius ut ad alium aeque inlustrem actum transgrediar, Cn. Domitius tribunus pl. M. Scaurum principem ciuitatis in iudicium populi deuocauit, ut, si fortuna aspirasset, ruina, sin minus, certe ipsa obtrectatione amplissimi uiri incrementum claritatis adprehenderet. cuius opprimendi cum summo studio flagraret, seruus Scauri noctu ad eum peruenit, instructurum se eius accusationem multis et grauibus domini criminibus promittens. erat in eodem pectore et inimicus et Domitius et dominus, diuersa aestimatione nefarium indicium perpendens. iustitia uicit odium: continuo enim et suis auribus obseratis et indicis ore clauso duci eum ad Scaurum iussit. accusatorem etiam reo suo, ne dicam diligendum, certe laudandum! quem populus cum propter alias uirtutes tum hoc nomine libentius et consulem et censorem et pontificem maximum fecit.
